I just instance blocked stereophonic.space on my instance. One person tried a motte-and-bailey fallacy on my most recent post--with implicit anti-vaccine and anti-autism suggestions--and then a second person from the same domain dove in with what sounded like an equally bad faith comment. I've seen this pattern before when I've posted about COVID and it resulted in dogpiling. After looking through a few posts over there, I think I can live without their contributions.

Eine Plattform auf der @nataschastrobl.bsky.social gecancelt wird, weil sie vermeintlich zu rechts sei hat ein Problem. Der #Shitstorm und das #Dogpiling das hier in den letzten Tagen von der #ShitposterBubble orchestriert wurde illustriert das massive Problem unter dem Bluesky leidet.

@timnitGebru @midgephoto In the perfect world I agree. Most of the sane instances have such rules. Unfortunately there are "free speech", 💩 posting instances in the fediverse that don't give a 🤬 about tolerance, humanity, etc. I'm probably going to get more #dogpiling by posting this. I don't care. As much as those servers can exist, I have the right to defederate/nuke them from my server. It's the only way....😞

@pasture @KimCrayton1 Oh no, you're one of those people that #dogpiling after the whole 🤬 gov[.]org thing with the kamala account. For the record I'm autistic as well so you can't use that excuse to explain why people block you. You can be all of that and more, and still be an arsehole. Sorry not sorry!

@thatbrickster @KimCrayton1 You do understand that not everyone has the time and effort to run a single user instance to have that sort of control?

Even I, a cis white person have seen the dark side of the fediverse in recent days when a "parody" account of Kamala went on a 💩 posting tirade and I inadvertantly got involved leading to a sustained #dogpiling.

At the end of the day things like muting, and on the admin side, limiting or suspending instances should be a last resort.

@sal @MNNHNewsEnglish @h Ya think? A bit late to be saying that after the #dogpiling. So I'll just start limiting more users then because people are not decent humans or sentient beings here. You got your wish of being ignored. Happy?

@indigotyrian Also Indigo, you better come with some supporting facts if you're going to throw the whole "fed" thing. I don't have any problems with you or the LGBTQ community. I thought trying to communicate like nice sentient beings would be a nice thing? All I'm seeing here is #dogpiling and #jumpingtoconclusions

@adiz @MNNHNewsEnglish @h @arcana This is ridiculous. I said later that I was fine with this. But this #dogpiling crosses a line!

#fediblock

#dogpiling is against many server rules, but is it limited to dogpiling individuals or does it also apply to hashtags?

recently #mastodonforharris has been polluted by people trying to create a false conflict with #mutualaid, and people griping and sniping on unrelated topics

recent examples (many more):

https://metalhead.club/@dinozombie/112854765528219015

https://social.translunar.academy/notice/AkKlD8yi669Zyt8rgG

https://wetdry.world/@astra_underscore/112854701095987402

is hijacking a hashtag with offtopic unrelated and toxic conflict acceptable on mastodon?

Was das #Mobbing, wie es von z.B. mastodon.art, xim.ca, mstdn.social und deren Freaks mit einem machen können: https://tly.be/pbOoe

Das Fediverse ist kein Safe-Space. Für niemanden, wenn Personen wie WelshPixie, Alex, Schratze oder Rysiek jemanden mit ihren Lügen bis hin zu Suizidgedanken treiben!

I've not planned to translate the text to English. If you need it in another language, use deepl.com and NOT Google Translate!
